Issue with Installing Zotero 7
Dear Zotero Support Team,
I previously successfully upgraded from Zotero 6 to Zotero 7 using the update check from the help menu and have already installed many plgins. Then, I received a prompt to switch from the 32-bit version to the 64-bit version. However, after the switching, I am now unable to launch Zotero 7 any more and encounter the following error message:
Error: Localized string not available for general.warning

I downloaded the Zotero 6 again and the file storage is safe, but I have no idea how to upgrade it to Zotero 7 now. Once I upgrade it, the Zotero cannot be launched any more with the above error message.
I kindly ask for help to solve the problem because I really need some plugins which are only available for Zotero 7. Many thanks for the assistance!

Note, though, that this would only happen if you had your Zotero data directory in a cloud storage folder, where it absolutely shouldn't be.
